Arrangements Set For Well-Known Doctor Killed In Plane Crash

Posted: Updated:

EVANS, Ga. - Funeral arrangements for a doctor killed in a plane crash last week have been set.

Dr. Steven Roth of "The Vein Guys" was among five people killed when a plane from Nashville crashed in Georgia.

It appears the plane had attempted to land when it pulled back up and hit a concrete pole. Four other people were also killed: Lisa Volpitto, Kim Davidson, Tiffany Porter and Heidi McCorkle. The two pilots survived the crash.

A vigil for Dr. Roth will be held in Georgia Tuesday, and then a funeral on Wednesday also in Augusta, Georgia. Arrangements for the other victims are being kept private.
